Are static variables available to other static variables?

[Jamie via Digitalmars-d-learn]

I was trying to declare a static variable dependent on another 
static variable, but it didn't work. Are static variables not 
known to other static variables at compile time?

void main()
{       
        C c = new C();
}
class C
{
    static size_t A = 2;
    static size_t B = 2^^A; // A is not known at compile time
}
